Ole Miss, how about you grow a pair and say to Texas, “If you do this you’ll be playing an intra-squad game ’cause we ain’t showing up!” Sure there might be litigation but I also see potential defenses for Ole Miss (like fraud in the inducement perhaps).

That’s the fraud. Texas knew there would be a Longhorn Network and didn’t tell Ole Miss. The fact that Texas put the subject clause in the contract when there wasn’t a Longhorn Network at the time is evidence of intent to defraud by Texas.

That is why your accountant / CPA should review the contract before or with your “alleged lawyer”. Somehow they always see the short-term and long-term money situation. Perhaps the viewing audience for Mississippi approximates the population of Mississippi. Doubt if MSU, Texas A&M, or LSU gives a damn.

Numbers. There are more 5-A schools in Houston, Texas than the entire state of Mississippi. Mississippi only exceeds Vermont, Wyoming, Montana, and Maine in rural population. Explain why those kids out of metro Atlanta went to Ole Miss?

If I’m at Ole Miss I turn it around. I invite a bunch of top recruits from the state of Texas to the game and remind them that playing at Texas gets you seen on the Longhorn network by hundreds of viewers while playing at Ole Miss puts you on CBS to play for millions of viewers. I would make this a big deal to amy potential recruit in the state of Texas, you know the Aggies are.

Quote Of The Day

“It brings back a great Bulldog running back in Thomas who has NFL playing experience and has had success as a college coach at multiple schools. He also inherits a position that has been built to an elite level by Bryan. And it gives Bryan the opportunity to return to coaching the position he played and the one where he cut his teeth serving as a graduate assistant under wide receiver coach John Eason here at UGA. It also provides him with a new experience as a passing game coordinator.” -- Mark Richt, AB-H, 2/16/15
